Communication apparatus

Abstract

A communication apparatus is disclosed. The communication apparatus includes a destination information storing unit which stores a destination name and destination information corresponding to the destination name, an operating screen displaying unit which displays information of operations of the communication apparatus, and a destination information non-display determining unit which determines whether the destination information is not to be displayed on the operating screen. When a destination name stored in the destination information storing unit is displayed and the destination name is selected as a destination, the operating screen displaying unit displays the destination information together with the destination name on the operating screen. When the destination information non-display determining unit determines that the destination information is not to be displayed on the operating screen, the destination information non-display determining unit does not display the destination information on the operating screen.

1 . A communication apparatus, comprising:
 a destination information storing unit which stores a destination name and destination information corresponding to the destination name;   an operating screen displaying unit which displays information of operations of the communication apparatus; and   a destination information non-display determining unit which determines whether the destination information is not to be displayed on the operating screen; wherein   when a destination name stored in the destination information storing unit is displayed and the destination name is selected as a destination, the operating screen displaying unit displays the destination information together with the destination name on the operating screen; and   when the destination information non-display determining unit determines that the destination information is not to be displayed on the operating screen, the destination information non-display determining unit does not display the destination information on the operating screen.   
   
   
       2 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 the destination information non-display determining unit determines not to display the destination information for each user of the communication apparatus.   
   
   
       3 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 the destination information non-display determining unit determines not to display the destination information for each destination name of the communication apparatus.   
   
   
       4 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 the destination information non-display determining unit determines not to display the destination information for each communication type of the destination.   
   
   
       5 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 the destination information non-display determining unit determines not to display the destination information for a combination of the user with the destination name.   
   
   
       6 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a password registering unit which registers a password of a user in a memory unit beforehand; and   a password inputting unit which causes a user to input his/her password when the user operates the communication apparatus; wherein   when a password input by the password inputting unit is equal to a password registered by the password registering unit, the operating screen displaying unit displays the destination information together with the destination name.   
   
   
       7 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 6 , further comprising:
 an operating screen displayed log recording unit which records a displayed time and date of the destination information on the operating screen together with the destination name when the password input by the password inputting unit is equal to the password registered by the password registering unit.   
   
   
       8 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a communication log recording unit which records a communication time and date of the communication apparatus with a destination apparatus and the destination information displayed by the operating screen displaying unit.   
   
   
       9 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a communication log recording unit which records a communication time and date of the communication apparatus with a destination apparatus and the destination information displayed by the operating screen displaying unit.   
   
   
       10 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 3 , further comprising:
 a communication log recording unit which records a communication time and date of the communication apparatus with a destination apparatus and the destination information displayed by the operating screen displaying unit.   
   
   
       11 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 4 , further comprising:
 a communication log recording unit which records a communication time and date of the communication apparatus with a destination apparatus and the destination information displayed by the operating screen displaying unit.   
   
   
       12 . The communication apparatus as claimed in  claim 5 , further comprising:
 a communication log recording unit which records a communication time and date of the communication apparatus with a destination apparatus and the destination information displayed by the operating screen displaying unit.
